Many of us do not trust Facebook and anything it is associated with or swallows up.
EDIT:
"Instagram head Adam Mosseri said "
““Soon, you’ll be able to follow and interact with people on other fediverse platforms, such as Mastodon. They can also find people on Threads using full usernames, such as @[email protected].””
“We’re committed to building support for ActivityPub, the protocol behind Mastodon, into this app. We weren’t able to finish it for launch given a number of complications that come along with a decentralized network, but it’s coming,” he said.
“If you’re wondering why this matters, here’s a reason: you may one day end up leaving Threads, or, hopefully not, end up de-platformed. If that ever happens, you should be able to take your audience with you to another server. Being open can enable that.”
Yeah, you can filter your feed. No one is arguing that. But you can’t filter the feed to someone else. That’s not how it works. I also don’t understand why you have to keep throwing around your supposed credentials when you haven’t been able to understand a simple web api concept. If you want Threads not to see you, they need to defederate your server. You don’t honestly think this server is posting to information to every other server individually, do you? Those servers grab information and that information is the same for every server that grabs it. It does not publish individual feeds to individual servers. That’s ludicrous when you consider the minimum specs for a server.
Your credentials don’t mean much when you can’t provide any hint of skill to make it mean much.
